Customer Reviews

Wild Ravens

Altonya Washington has done it again. My favorite stories from her are the ones that take place in the late 1800's. She is a very gifted writer. I found myself so fasinated by the characters in the book that I found it difficult to put it down. The romance between the main characters was wonderful. All I can say is that I want more.

Great Book

When I saw the book in the bookstore, I looked over it. Then, I heard a few people state it was a good book. I read the book in one day and I loved it. She told the tale very well, and I love the depth of the characters. The only complaint I have is the editing of the book. Other than that, I say great job Altonya!

Wild Ravens a Winner

For Ms. Washington's first historical novel, I would have to say that she did a superb job. Her characters are believable, well developed and they have great depth, and are totally enchanting. The plot just kept getting richer and deeper with some unexpected twists and turns. This story has it all -- love, betrayal, trust, humor, action...it leaves you with a good feeling. If I were to have the "sight" I would have to say that Ms. Washington's future as an author is a foregone conclusion, she just gets better with each book. I do have to mention though that it must be embarrasing for Ms. Washington that her editor and publisher did not do a very good job of proofing her book for printing errors, maybe next time they will be a bit more careful. Otherwise it is a terrific read....

Wild Ravens -a vivid and memorable tale

Great read! The author shows great knowledge and command of word use. She is a very vivid and descriptive writer. Ms Washington makes one feel as though they are there with the characters. The story is creative and clever. I will never look at 'blackberries' without reflecting on this book!! Too bad the publisher/editor didn't catch their errors!
